Roxanne Perez’ Recent WWE Television Absence Explained

Roxanne Perez has finally addressed her sudden absence from WWE television — and the reason is medical.

Fans have noticed that while her Judgment Day teammates Liv Morgan, Raquel Rodriguez, Finn Bálor, and Dominik Mysterio have remained regular fixtures on RAW, Perez has been noticeably missing from weekly programming. Now, she’s explaining why.

Taking to TikTok, Roxanne revealed she recently underwent surgery to remove a benign mass in her back that had been causing her pain for months. Perez made it clear this wasn’t something she wanted to do — especially at this stage of her career.

“I’ve been out for about a week now. I recently underwent a surgery to remove a benign mass that was in my back that was causing me a lot of pain for a couple of months. I didn’t want to have time off.”

The former NXT Champion reassured fans that recovery is going smoothly and that the procedure has already relieved much of the discomfort.

“My recovery is going well. I don’t have too much pain anymore. It kind of comes and goes. I’m going to be back in the ring in no time.”

Roxanne last wrestled in the Women’s Royal Rumble and later appeared on the February 2 episode of RAW, where she interfered in the street fight between Raquel Rodriguez and Stephanie Vaquer — even going through a table during the chaos. After that appearance, she disappeared from television, prompting speculation among fans.

Now, there’s no mystery. Perez also admitted she misses being in the ring, calling WWE her lifelong dream, and said she plans to stay active with more TikTok content while she recovers.

For someone who has been featured heavily in WWE storylines over the past year, her absence stood out — especially with Judgment Day continuing to dominate weekly television. The good news for fans is that the issue was addressed early, handled surgically, and she expects to return sooner rather than later.
